3000 dead on Uk roads,drunk,drugs,speed and just plain bad driving all being factors in these deaths.?

Is it time for zero tolerance and should all cars be fitted with devices that record evidence for prosecutions in view that traffic police are often not present on our roads. Was a paramedic for 35yrs now retired but see that driving standards have taken a nose dive. To Chunky statistics on all national news and obtainable from ROSPA.

Drink driving offences in UK - 40% from eastern europeans?

Ive heard this figure and am trying to find the source of it. But i do find it quite easy to believe as those motorway cops programs seem to be full of p**sed eastern europeans who dont know the law. Anyone know if this is true. well id like to learn if it is fact. And not just accuse it of being from the media. Facts carry no racial or political agenda, they are just facts. Dunc m: firstly this artlicle is from the gaurdian and we all know they are not exaclty unbias. Secondly they are wrong within the first paragraph, they state that they eastern europeans have been coming here since 2000. And we all know it only became a problem in 2004 when poland entered the eu. They accuse these stories of being false but themselves do nothing to say how it is false. Which is as bad as lying about the story in the first place. And im sure the sex trafficing issue that the government has raised today has nothing to do with eastern europeans! carswoody: straight from the horses mouth. How often do you have to ask for an interpreter these days as the people you stop dont speak any english?

what punishment would i get if i was caught drink driving twice and failed to go to court a year and half ago?

i was driving wivout insurance or tax and i ave not turned up at court and i also caused about £10,000 pounds worth of damage to a parked car

Answer (by Mozart):
If you've failed to turn up at court it's presumably because you now no longer live at the address given to the police at the time? There will be a warrant issued, without bail, hopefully, and so when you are finally caught I think you can expect a jail sentence. It may help your case if you surrender yourself but then most people who drink/drive and don't have insurance are totally irresponsible and unlikely to be brave enough to give themselves up!!!

medical to get your licence back after drink driving disqualification?

does anyone know exactly what this medical entails - do they take a hair sample or is it just blood and urine tests?

Answer (by oklatom):
The extent of the testing would vary depending on the information required by the authorities in your location, which you failed to mention. Want to name a country, or state if you're in the US? You'd probably get a specific answer if you did.
